Q: Loner: "Your disk could not be partitioned" error. Please help
Hey, Loner
After recovering the disk space, I tried to run BCA. I used an 64bit Win10 .iso downloaded from Microsoft. BCA created the install disk, downloaded the support files, and allowed me to choose my partition size (even split) on my 3TB Fusion drive. Then I got the error.
I reset SMC
Rest PRAM
No external devices are plugged in.
I repaired the drive in disk utility, as well as rebooted in single user mode and performed a /sbin/fsck -fy repair.
Also, I booted into safe mode to try BCA from there, but it couldn't find the Win install disk even though disk utility could find it.
Here is my current diskutil list:
diskutil cs list
That is as far as my current research into the problem has brought me. I do remember seeing a bunch of odd disks added to diskutil when run in repair mode. There were about ten of them. I am not sure if they were repaired during the previous processes.
Ideas? Thanks!

We built your CS volume/volume group by hand, so there are no individual disks as they are not part of the CS setup. In Internet Recovery, click on Utilities -> Disk Utility and select the outermost disk, and click erase. Once it is erased, try your TM Restore.
